Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-686
If I use linux-386, it goes down to 0% (correct). I have an i915 graphic board. Xorg uses i810 driver, and the kernel loads drm/i915.ko
Both kernel versions (686/386) are 2.6.15-25

Same thing here (Latitude X1 with Pentium M, same graphics board and driver). Has been that way already with the 2.6.15-23 kernel
When just booting into the Gnome desktop my CPU load then stays at 5-6% with the linux-386 kernel, whereas it stays at 40-50% with the linux-686 kernel.
But I rembember people with other hardware posting this problem in the Web-Forums, although I can't find the posts at the moment. Only common thing was, that everybody encountering this problem used a Pentium M of some sort.
